THE CANDIŚATAKA OF BĀŅA
there seems to be an almost utter absence of śleșa, or parono-
masia, a fact that may perhaps be adduced as an argument in
favor of adopting the earlier date-3d or 4th century A.D.-
which I have advocated above (p. 18) for the Bhaktāmarastotra.
There are numerous mythological allusions, as in the Süryaśataka
and Candisataka, and in several stanzas praise is heaped without
stint upon Sürya. On the whole, the Bhaktamarastotra is a
much less elaborate work than either of its alleged rival poems.
